Shaping tomorrow - sustainable materials, construction techniques and the use of renewable energies

There is no question: the use of sustainable building materials is crucial for the construction industry of the future. Asphalt made from wood, cementless construction with sand, sustainable insulating materials made from straw and coconut fiber - all these and more could be the materials our houses are made from in the future. After all, the use of innovative materials can save energy, water and CO2 emissions and thus make a positive contribution to climate protection. The question here, however, is: how can we accelerate the implementation of sustainable materials, what revolutionary ideas already exist to make the construction industry more sustainable and how do we move from talking to building? Gudrun Senk, CTO Wiener Linien, Samuel Krupensky, CEO Kruner Industries, Wolfgang Gebetsroither, CEO Hausverstand Bau, Helmut Forchtner, Director Sustainability Siemens Austria, and Stefan Sattler, Energy Consultant City of Vienna, will discuss these issues.
